KERMEN - Public Key Infrastructure Desktop Client

KERMEN - Public Key Infrastructure Desktop Client

As a result of the widespread use of the Internet and computer systems, institutions and organizations have moved most of their work and services to the computer environment and have started to use the Internet as an effective communication channel. In this context, the use of e-mail and the amount and importance of the information it carries are increasing day by day. Leaving valuable information stored in files on work computers or transported on the Internet through channels such as e-mail unprotected against unauthorized access can cause commercial losses and weaken the reliability and brand value of organizations.

ESYA ZD SERVER / ESYA Timestamp Server

ESYA ZD SERVER / ESYA Timestamp Server

Time Stamp is a security data defined by an international standard and legally valid in order to prove the existence of electronic data on a specified date. The Timestamp Server generates timestamps in accordance with these standards for electronic data sent to it. The need to prove the date and time where a contract is signed, money is transferred, an application is made, etc. is vital for today's e-commerce and e-government applications.

In addition, a time stamp is required for all kinds of electronic data, such as a new drawing, design, photograph, idea, research, formula, algorithm, book, for which intellectual and proprietary usage rights are to be obtained. According to Electronic Signature Law No. 5070, Time Stamp refers to “the record verified by electronic signature by the electronic certificate service provider in order to determine the time when an electronic data was produced, changed, sent, received and/or recorded”.
